Happy Birthday

Sale-A-Bration Favored Flowers DSP

Flowers-Birds-Butterflies-Nature, Happy Birthday / January 17, 2023

Today I am combining the Biggest Wish stamp set with some of the new Favored Flowers Designer Series paper pack. This paper pack is a FREE item in the Sale-A-Bration catalog. Just purchase $50 from my online store and choose this paper pack for your free item.

I used some Petal Pink cardstock to match the flowers in the paper and added another panel of Petal Pink that I cropped using the Color and Contour dies. The greeting is from Biggest Wish and is stamped with Evening Evergreen ink. I stamped the greeting on Basic White and cropped with the Scalloped Contour dies. I then used my paper snips to cut away the scallop edges on the white panel. I mounted the greeting to the Petal Pink with Stampin’ Dimensionals.

Project Measurements

Petal Pink CS- 5½ x 8½ (card base), 3 x 4
Basic White CS- 3 x 4 , 4 x 5¼
Favored Flowers DSP- 4 x 5¼
Biggest Wish Stamp Set
Evening Evergreen Ink
Scalloped Contour Dies
Paper Snips

Until next time, be blessed, Renae

Whiskey Business Happy Birthday Dad!

1 Comment / Happy Birthday, Masculine Cards / January 11, 2023

Today is my Dad’s 85th birthday and I am sure with losing my mom in June, this will be a difficult day for him, not that all days are not difficult. We are planning to go to 7 a.m. Mass this morning and then take him out for breakfast. Some of my siblings will be joining us, so it should be a fun celebration.

Project Measurements

Crumb Cake CS- 5½ x 8½ (card base), 2 x 2
Cajun Craze CS- 3¼ x 4½
Basic White CS: 4 x 5¼
Early Espresso Ink
Cajun Craze Ink
Stampin’ Blend Combos: Smoky Slate, Cajun Craze, So Saffron
Whiskey Business Stamp Set
Happiness Abound Stamp Set
Timber 3-D Embossing Folder
Stylish Shapes Dies
Stampin Cut n Emboss Machine
Stampin’ Seal Adhesive or Liquid Glue

I used a the light Smoky Slate Stampin’ Blend Marker to color some definition on the canister and glasses. For the whiskey I used the light So Saffron and Cajun Craze. The greeting is stamped in Early Espresso and cropped with one of the circles from the Stylish Shapes Dies. The Cajun Craze panel is embossing with the Timber 3-D folder.

A View from Inside

I decided to use the Happy Birthday from Happiness Abounds. I really love the combo of print and cursive on a greeting.

I really hope my Dad enjoys this card and his Birthday breakfast! Happy Birthday Dad I love you. I know Mom is looking down on you from heaven, so it is bound to be a perfect day!

Thanks for stopping by!
Until next time, be blessed, Renae

I began with a Basic White card base and added a piece of the black Gingham Cottage checked DSP to the left side of my card. I stamped the large and smaller apples in Memento Black ink and with the Stampin’ Cut n Emboss Machine cropped them using the new coordinating dies in the bundle.

Color in the images with the Stampin’ Blends alcohol markers and attach to the card front using a few Stampin’ Dimensionals.
